Losing Lucian McKenzie, the Prince of her heart and
discovering her true identity has made Elena Watkins' life almost unbearable.
However, new trials will test the 17 year-old's strength and push her to limits
she didn’t think were possible.

Only a mysterious offer from Blake Leaf, the Rubicon and a
dragon predestined for evil, reveals there may be a light at the end of Elena’s
dark tunnel.

With the life she thought she knew crashing down around her,
Elena will have to face a monumental decision about the fate of Paegeia. She
can either make peace with Blake’s demands or try once again to unravel the
Queen’s secrets that lie deep within her dragon, Tanya La Frey’s, heart.

The third heart pounding novel in The Dragonian Series by
Adrienne Wood

I WAS BACK INSIDE that cave, the one where Lucian lost his
life. I looked around but I knew he wasn’t going to come for me, he was dead.
Then what the hell am I still doing here, staring at a psycho who claims to be
my dragon?

“You really thought that I was your dragon, Elena?
Seriously?” He laughed that sadistic laugh that made my insides twist and turn
in all directions.

“Get away from me you freak,” I spat.

His hand connected hard against my cheek, it burned and my
ears rang for a couple of seconds.

“I’m not a freak, I’m a patriot.”

“Patriot?” I laughed as loud as I could. “You are a
murderer!”

Another strike. The Elementals clucked like crazy, they
could feel the danger all around them and must have felt helpless. It was
beginning to drive me insane.

“Stop it you mongrels, or I’ll skin you alive,” Paul yelled
and for some reason they listened. He looked back down at me again. The point
of his knife was close to my throat. “It’s funny how everyone around you knows
who you are, Elena, except you.”

“What are you talking about?”

He laughed again. “I guess they like to play mind games with
you, like to keep you in the dark.” His eyes met mine. “Some friends you have.”

“Stop that, you know nothing about my friends, or what
friendship is.”

“Why? Because they all end up betraying you at the end of the
day. Take it from me; it’s better to live in the dark. You can do whatever you
want, be whatever you want. Your friends don’t give a shit about you, and
neither does your dragon.”

“You are not my dragon,” I yelled again.

“Oh, I know that, and for some sick, twisted reason your
true dragon wasn’t bothered one bit that I claimed you as my rider.”

“You are lying.”

“Am I?” He looked around. “Then where is your dragon, Elena?
Why isn’t it here?” The Elementals’ clucking noises drowned the rest of Paul’s
words. I could see his lips moving, but their sounds of pure panic drilled
through my brain, making it impossible to hear what he had to say. It grew
louder and louder and then a cannon shot rang through their cries.

I jumped up in bed, soaked with sweat. It was like, the
gazillionth time I’d had that dream. I could still hear their clucking and it
made me feel like I was going crazy, but still, no tears came. My heart felt as
if it was bouncing inside my ears. No matter how many times I had the same
dream, I could never hear Paul’s last words as the Elemental sounds kept
interrupting him. But there was one thing that I knew was a lie, I didn’t own a
dragon. I was a dragon, and that was one piece of information I still struggled
to deal with.

Adrienne Woods was born and raised in South Africa, where
she still lives with her husband and two beautiful little girls. She always
knew she was going to be a writer, but it only started to really happen about
four years ago. In her free time―if
she gets any because moms don’t really have free time―she loves to spend it with friends, whether it’s
a girl’s
night out, or just watching a movie. She’s a very chilled person. Her
writing career started with Firebolt, book one in the Dragonian series. There
will be four books in total, including a further two to three books, which will
be stories that take place within the Dragonian series. Her other series, Dream
Casters, will be released mid-2015. She also writes in different genres, and
her woman’s fiction, The Pregnancy Diaries, will be published under a
pseudonym. And then, she has a paranormal series by the name of the Aswang
series, which will consist of about ten novels. And if that wasn’t enough,
there is another series, Guardians of Monsters, which will be released in 2016.

About Me

I am an advid reader always have a book with me. I also have the most beautiful three great danes ever. I fell in love with the city of New Orleans when I was a small child. It has a history unique to itself and it flourishes with culture. Anne Rice is a big influence to me. The thought of Lestat walking the streets of New Orleans freaks me out to this day. I often consider myself an old soul from my love of old black and white movies and 80's I mean really who wouldn't want John Cusack holding a Boom Box under your window. I also enjoy all kinds of music, I have very eclectic tastes.
I am also an aspiring author working on two series.
